Why Some Planners Don't Work — and How the Live Well Life Planner is Different
/Buying a planner doesn’t always mean you’ll use it, and I know how frustrating that can be. You want change, and you bought the planner to help make it happen. So why does it so often fall short?
Here’s why most planners end up abandoned soon after you get them, and what makes the Live Well Life Planner different.
Problem 1: They assume you already know what you want
Most planners drop you straight into setting goals or filling out weekly pages. But what if you’re not clear yet? The Live Well Life Planner starts with a reset process, guiding you to reflect on your life, release what’s not working, and reset your focus before you begin.
Problem 2: They’re rigid and overwhelming
When planners demand perfection, people give up. The Live Well Life Planner is flexible and forgiving, so you can pick it up again any time without guilt.
Problem 3: They focus only on productivity
Ticking boxes doesn’t equal living well. This planner takes a whole-life view — health, relationships, work, growth, joy, and everything that matters to you — so it helps you live with clarity and purpose.
Problem 4: They don’t spark excitement
Most planners feel like homework, something you “have to” do. The Live Well Life Planner makes planning inspiring, not draining.
“The prompts in the Planner help me figure out what’s important for the month, week, and day. It’s such a confidence boost to see what I achieve, especially when we can be our own hardest critics!” — Vayle Hammond
Problem 5: They don’t help you dream bigger
The right planner doesn’t just keep you organised, it opens your eyes to what’s possible. That’s why it’s helpful to choose a planner that prompts you to think about what you really want.
“Using the Planner and ticking off my goals, I realised I wasn’t dreaming big enough — my goals weren’t ambitious enough. They’re bigger now!” — Gill
Most planners help you fill days. The Live Well Life Planner helps you create a life you’re really excited about.
